Chapter 221: The Battle of Man and Wolf

Shu'er has been in the wasteland for almost a month, but she is in a good mood, because now she can be by her side every day, and she can snuggle up to her brother Qingchen. And today she had lunch, and walked out of the big tent, because she was going to go to the polo field, there was a game in the polo field today, the game between the Xiao Riding Camp dominated by her Qingchen brother and the Tiger and Leopard Riding dominated by Li Ke, these two polo teams have been competing for more than 30 games, but they are all equal, today is the day of the finals.

For Shu'er, her Qingchen brother on one side of the game, and her personal guard Tiger and Leopard Rider on the other side, no matter which side wins the game, it has no effect on her, so she is in a good mood, unlike the Xiao Riding Battalion or the Tiger and Leopard Riding Generals, who are quite nervous about today's game.

By the time she gets to the polo field, the game is about to begin!

"Shu'er, why are you here? Are you feeling better? Ji Qingchen, who was doing warm-up activities, saw Shu'er and asked her with a smile. In the past few days, Shu'er's body has been a little unwell, so she has been staying in the big tent, and today is the first time she has appeared here.

"Let Brother Qingchen worry, there's nothing to do!" Shu'er smiled and said, "I wonder which of you will win today's game?" ”

"Naturally, it's me!" Ji Qingchen said very narcissistically.

"Hee-hee, really?" Shu'er said slyly, "What if you lose?" ”

"This-" Ji Qingchen was speechless for a while, not knowing what Lu Dao said, because he didn't think that he would lose today's game, "I won't lose!" ”

"What if I lose?" Shu'er said stubbornly.

"Will you bet me?" Ji Qingchen said, "The stakes are huge—"

"Uh, this, what's the bet?" Seeing Ji Qingchen's wicked smile on his face, Shu'er was a little frightened and asked in a low voice.

"Just bet that you and I will reign over the world, right?" Ji Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "If I lose this time, if I lose in the future, you will accompany me to make a comeback, and if I win today, you will accompany me to reign in the world." ”

"Yes!" After listening to Ji Qingchen's bet, Shu'er nodded and said, "No matter when, as long as you win, I will accompany you to reign in the world; If you lose, I'll accompany you to make a comeback! ”

The two were talking, the time for the game had come, and Huang Taiji, as the referee, sounded the gong of the game.

And Ji Qingchen also left Shu'er, and a total of thirteen people rode into the competition field with Li Changzheng and the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and Li Ke on the other side also led twelve tiger and leopard horses into the competition field together.

The two sides rode to the middle line, met each other, and selected the venue under the auspices of Huang Taiji, and the game began.

This is a tough game, because since the polo field was first established, the two teams have played thirty-six games, but they have all been tied, and the polo game will be stopped after today, so this game is related to the final victory or defeat of the two teams, whether it is Ji Qingchen and Li Ke dare not be careless.

Therefore, in the beginning, both sides played very carefully.

However, even though both teams were cautious and careful, polo was a very intense game, so the match did not disappoint the cavalry and tiger and leopard riders on the sidelines.

Especially Li Changzheng, he played very badly in the last few games, and his level was less than half of what he usually played with Ji Qingchen, but in this game, his level returned to the peak state when he played polo, so at the beginning he stole the polo passed to Li Ke by the Haw Par Knight, and assisted Ji Qingchen to take the lead in the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

Li Changzheng's ball is very comfortable, as long as Ji Qingchen urges him to step forward, he can directly hit the goal with a club.

Therefore, when the ball was hit into the goal of the tiger and leopard riding, Ji Qingchen, who had already entered the game, roared, glanced at Shu'er, and showed an arrogant expression, which made Shu'er Gegege's big smile endlessly.

And Li Ke's tiger and leopard rider was not far behind.

Soon after they served, Li Ke assisted a cavalry battalion soldier to equalize the score!

In this way, the two sides returned to the same running line, and the game fell into a fierce scramble, and the scene was very lively!

In this way, the game went on for an hour, and finally Ji Qingchen's one-goal goal laid the victory or defeat for the Xiao Riding Camp for this month!

As soon as the game ended, Ji Qingchen got off the horse, and was about to be proud of Shu'er, when he saw Zuo Zongquan, who was patrolling the surrounding area today, strode into the polo field.

Seeing Ji Qingchen, he walked quickly to Ji Qingchen and whispered in Ji Qingchen's ear, "Ninth brother, I found a wolf's den in a shallow beach northwest of Daying, and there are a few cubs in it, I don't know if His Highness Dao likes it or not?" If you like them, I'll get them back! ”

"Wolves? Or cubs? "Ji Qingchen said strangely, doesn't this wasteland say that there are no birds and beasts? How did another litter of wolf cubs appear? Is there anything special about this litter of wolf cubs?

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Ji Qingchen said, he was overjoyed, he had long wanted to raise a wolf cub or a tiger cub, but he had never had a chance to catch it, now that he had this opportunity, and it was not an ordinary wolf cub, how could he let go of such a good opportunity?

"Brother Qingchen, what are you talking about?" Seeing that Ji Qingchen was whispering to Zuo Zongquan, Shu'er on the side walked up to Ji Qingchen and asked curiously.

"It's nothing, it's just that I found a litter of wolf cubs, I'm going to check it out!" Ji Qingchen said.

"Oh-" Shu'er responded, her eyes flashed with a glint of light, obviously she also thought about what Ji Qingchen was going to do, but she had been unwell recently, so she didn't say anything to go with Ji Qingchen to take a look.

"Li Changzheng, mobilize a hundred cavalry battalions, let's go out for a walk." Ji Qingchen ordered Li Changzheng on the side, and said to Huang Taiji with an envious face, "You can go too!" ”

"No!" Li Changzheng and Huang Taiji were ordered.

And Ji Qingchen immediately explained some things, and led Li Changzheng and Huang Taiji, as well as Zuo Zongquan and the hundred Xiao cavalry battalion, to disappear into the camp.

Their camp was three hundred miles from the wolf's den to the northwest, and it would take a day to travel as fast as possible. And this time it was not a quick march to the wolf's den, there was no need to travel day and night, so when Ji Qingchen and his party arrived at the wolf's den, it took them nearly three days to travel three hundred miles.

It's a shoal, so there's also a stream.

There was a small hole in a rocky side not far from the stream.

Ji Qingchen, who rode to the same front, asked Zuo Zongquan, "This is the wolf's den?" He wondered how the wolf could put his cubs here.

"Yes." Zuo Zongquan replied, but he was immediately shocked again, "No, it seems that the wolf cub has already run away, it's impossible!" Four days ago, we found out that they were moving around the entrance of the cave? ”

"Come on, go to the cave and see what's going on!" Ji Qingchen ordered to the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

A soldier of the cavalry battalion received the order, got off his horse and walked to the entrance of the cave, observed for a long time, and personally probed his body into the cave, but still did not find the wolf cub.

"Maybe it was taken away by the she-wolf, presumably it was four days ago when we wandered at the entrance of the cave and the she-wolf found out!" Zuo Zongquan analyzed.

"Can you tell the direction in which it is fleeing?" Ji Qingchen asked Huang Taiji.

Because the Beirong people like to raise birds and beasts, and the wolf is the totem of the Beirong people, only the Beirong people know the characteristics of the wolf best, so Ji Qingchen asked Huang Taiji this question.

"If in two days, I can judge his direction, if it takes a long time, there is nothing I can do!" Huang Taiji replied. Seeing that Ji Qingchen didn't speak again, he consciously jumped off the horse, lingered near the entrance of the cave for a long time, and sniffed with his nose for a long time before saying to Ji Qingchen, "Back to Your Highness, this she-wolf has been out of the wolf's den for less than a day, and it is trying to flee in the northwest direction." ”

"Are you sure?" Ji Qingchen couldn't believe it, after all, like Huang Taiji, he sniffed at the entrance of the cave, and after checking the entrance of the cave for a long time, he judged the direction in which the she-wolf escaped, this is amazing, right?

"I'm sure!" Huang Taiji said confidently that with wolves as totems, they know best about wolves on the grassland.

"Shu'er likes wolf cubs, and besides, this king also wants to raise a wolf cub to play, if he misses this opportunity, he will probably never have a chance again when he returns to Dayan." Ji Qingchen said, "Today, we will fight this she-wolf!" ”

"No!" Li Changzheng and others received the order.

The army began to chase in the northwest in the direction where the she-wolf had fled! In just half a day, Ji Qingchen's horse team caught up with the she-wolf.

This is because the she-wolf has three cubs, and she can only take one cub with her every time she walks forward, and she has to walk three times on the same section of the road with three cubs, so she will be caught up by Ji Qingchen.

Seeing the she-wolf galloping in front of him from a distance, this made Ji Qingchen very excited, and he issued a military order to let the Xiaoqi battalion chase after the she-wolf, but the order did not need to hurt the she-wolf and cubs.

In this way, a she-wolf ran ahead, and behind it a hundred cavalry pursued and killed.

After running for nearly half a pillar of incense, the Xiaoqi battalion caught up with the she-wolf and surrounded the she-wolf on a barren beach. It should be said that the she-wolf took the initiative to stop, which allowed the Xiaoqi battalion to catch up. Therefore, if the she-wolf lets go of the speed and runs, even the cavalry battalion may not be able to catch up.

At this time, Ji Qingchen also walked to the front with Li Changzheng and the others.

When he saw the three snow-white cubs beside the she-wolf, he immediately understood the reason why the she-wolf had stopped. Because the cubs are here, the she-wolf does not want to give up on them, so she will stop and prepare to protect her young.

It's just that to Ji Qingchen's surprise, he saw that the she-wolf who was trapped in the middle did not attack, but bit the cub fiercely.

Everyone didn't know that the she-wolf would behave like this, so they didn't pay much attention to it when the she-wolf bit the cub, but when the she-wolf bit a cub to death, they realized that something was wrong.

At this time, Ji Qingchen hurriedly ordered to stop it, but it was already playing, and the she-wolf had already bitten the second cub.

"Whoosh-"

Just as the she-wolf bit the second cub to death and was about to bite the third, a feathered arrow suddenly pierced the air and shot at the she-wolf, nailing the she-wolf to the ground quickly, ruthlessly, and accurately.

Everyone looked in the direction of the archery, and the person who shot the arrow was none other than Li Changzheng.

Because Ji Qingchen had already ordered not to hurt the she-wolf and cubs just now, no one dared to shoot arrows, so they could only watch the she-wolf bite the cubs to death, and only Li Changzheng dared to occasionally disobey Ji Qingchen's order.

"Brother Jiu, this-you also saw it just now, if the Long March is-" Li Changzheng saw that Ji Qingchen was looking at him, so he was embarrassed to explain, but Ji Qingchen didn't let him finish his words, so he said, "I know the way!" ”

However, he jumped off his horse and personally took the only wolf cub in his arms.

This cub is only a month in size, white fur, bright eyes, and a long tiger head is very cute, seeing Ji Qingchen holding it in his arms, it leaned its head on Ji Qingchen's chest, rubbed it, and fell asleep in a daze.

"Bury the she-wolf and the two cubs!" Ji Qingchen said, turned over on the horse, and left.

To be honest, his mood was indeed a little heavy, his original intention was to catch a cub, and he never thought of taking all three cubs of the she-wolf, let alone asking for the life of the she-wolf. But this she-wolf is ruthless enough, in order not to let her child fall into the hands of humans as pets, she can do such a poisonous hand.

This had to make Ji Qingchen sigh that the strange thinking of the animal world was indeed not something that people could understand.
